Body Cam or Dash Cam Footage Used in Ohio Criminal Defense Cases

Body cam footage or dash cam footage can be crucial evidence in a criminal defense case. Law enforcement officers may use body-worn cameras and cameras installed on the dashboard of
police vehicles to collect audio and visual footage. Under Ohio law, these videos are public records and can be used as evidence to show the true sequence of events in criminal defense cases.

Body or Dash Cam Footage Can Be Useful to Show

Police misconduct
Discrepancies in officer or witness testimony
Violation of search and seizure or Miranda rights

Having body cam or dash cam video can be helpful proving your innocence...or guilt. For
example, if you were pulled over for a DUI and you display clear signs of intoxication in thes
officer’s body cam footage, it may be hurtful to your case. However, if an arresting officer’s body
cam footage shows that you were not read your Miranda rights, body cam footage can be
valuable to your case.
Our experienced criminal defense attorneys at The Law Offices of Steven R. Adams will review
all the evidence in your case, including police reports, testimonies, and any body/dash cam
video to help you construct the best defense and protect your rights.
